The God of War in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 372
Opening the map, Chen Ran glanced across the map.

This map drawing is not very detailed. It only roughly marks some mountain settlements, as well as the terrain and terrain, and there is no other data.

However, limited by the conditions, Chen Ran can generally accept it.After Chen Ran looked carefully, he had a basic understanding of the situation in Yuzhang Shanyue.

Chen Ran sent people to pass it around, and after watching it, Chen Ran looked at Jia Xu and asked, "What do you think, the military advisor?"

Jia Xu nodded with a smile and said: "I just heard Zhou Taishou's words and looked at this map. Yu Shanyue already has a little understanding, but his subordinates think that Shanyue is a tribe of Baiyue who lives in the mountains and fields. It has its advantages and cannot be underestimated.”

"What's more, the army is just starting out, and the food and grass from all walks of life have not yet been in place. The subordinates think that the lord will send scouts first to investigate the real situation in Shanyue. The so-called knowing yourself and the enemy, you can win a hundred battles."

Jia Xu didn't directly propose a strategy. In his opinion, before he has enough confidence, he will never get ahead easily. If he only has a half-knowledge of Shanyue's situation and is vague, it is better to understand Shanyue well before making plans.

Chen Ran nodded slightly. Because of the news of Shanyue's siege, they speeded up their march. Now that the food and grass are behind, they really need to wait for the food and grass.If there is a problem with the food and grass, it will be very troublesome.

"What the military adviser said is true, but I think the purpose of this mountain crossing may not be so simple." Chen Ranri nodded thoughtfully and said.

At this time Zhou Cang cupped his hands again and said: "My lord, I have interrogated the captives before, and learned that most of these captives are from each village, but not under the command of the leader Zhuo Luo."

Chen Ran was taken aback for a moment, and then asked curiously: "There is such a thing? What else is going on?"

"My subordinates have heard that the commander of this army is Zhuo Luo's confidant, Xin Ke, who is extremely brave and quite capable." Zhou Cang replied quite delicately, clasping his hands.

"The subordinates feel that Ren Ke gave up the army so resolutely and fled alone. I'm afraid that this matter was not thought of in a hurry, but had an idea earlier." Zhou Cang showed a thoughtful look, and couldn't help but say something.

Chen Ran seemed to have thought of something, he couldn't help taking a breath, and said, "If that's the case, this Zoro is really terrifying. It's really troublesome to have such a resolute heart."

Zhou Shu was a little confused, saying that he didn't understand very well.Jia Xu also pondered slightly, and said: "If this matter is really what Yuan Fu said, my lord should make up his mind early and not give Shanyue a chance to develop."

Chen Ran lowered his head...

Shanyue station, in Dazhai.

Zhuo Luo was still sitting in the first place, and under his left hand was Ren Ke who had escaped from Nanchang.

Seeing Zhuo Luo's majestic look, Ren Ke was filled with trepidation and worry, and said, "This subordinate is not doing well, so I ask the leader to come down!"

Zhuo Luo smiled lightly when he heard the words, and said, "It's not good for the work? It doesn't have to be. Although Nanchang City has not been captured, it can be regarded as a completed matter."

"Most of the people you command are the elites of the various villages. Although the strength of each village has been greatly damaged, I have no other losses. Under the ups and downs of each other, I want to see how those villages can resist Shall I wait for the offensive?" Zhuo Luo's voice was slightly cold, appearing rather stern.

Although they belong to the same Shanyue family, since they are in different villages, it is inevitable that there will be some conflicts.Fights are also common.

Although Zhuo Luo is the leader of Shanyue in Yuzhang, although this kind of power is effective, it cannot completely control the power of Shanyue.

As an ambitious person, how could Zoro tolerate others sleeping soundly on his couch?
He really wants to control the villages once and for all, but after all, his strength is limited. Although he is much better than his father, he still can't reach the point where orders must be followed.

But this time, he ordered Ren Ke to lead an army of tens of thousands to attack Nanchang City. One reason was that there was indeed a lack of food, and as a county town, Nanchang City naturally stored a large amount of food and grass, which could be used as subsidies.

Secondly, most of the troops led by Zhuo Luoling and Ren Ke were elite soldiers selected from various villages. After going through battles, death is inevitable.

This time Ren Ke was almost equivalent to annihilation of the entire army. Although it was miserable, it also met Zhuo Luo's requirements.The annihilation of these Shanyue troops meant that the strength of all the villages except him had declined.

The strength in his hands was already the strongest among all the strongholds, so if it is consumed like this, the reduction of others will make him appear to be even better.

At that time, he will have full control of Yuzhang Mountain, which will have a population of several hundred thousand, and tens of thousands of them will be able to fight. Then he will be able to start his plan.

As a truly ambitious young man, how can Zhuo Luo be willing to spend his whole life in this mountain and wild, without seeing the world outside?

Zhuo Luo had seen the Yellow Turban Uprising, and saw how majestic he was at the beginning. He was a peasant uprising, so why couldn't he do something about it?

And Zhuo Luo knew very well that this was not the Central Plains, but the southern part of Yangzhou, where the power of the imperial court was extremely weak.

At this moment, Zhuo Luo was naturally quite complacent. After thinking it over, Zhuo Luo looked at Ren Ke again.

Asked: "According to what you said, those Han troops are so brave. You command them all are elite. How can you not compare with an army of thousands of people?"

Ren Ke smiled wryly and said: "After all, the Han army has been trained, and the army led by the subordinates, although the individual is not bad, but in real terms, I am afraid it is not as good as it is."

"The Han army is just a vanguard. There may not be a small number of troops in the future. The subordinates don't know how many there are. The leader made a plan early in the morning." Ren Ke hesitated slightly, but reminded.

Zhuo Luo nodded lightly and said: "The Han army is like this, so we can't easily fight it on the ground, but if we occupy the mountains and forests, if we use this to compete with the Han army, it will definitely have a miraculous effect."

Immediately afterwards, Zhuo Luo's eyes sank, and he said in a loud voice: "These Han troops are coming aggressively. I'm afraid they came with bad intentions. They thought they were targeting us. But if these Han troops really dare to attack, I will let them know. I, Shanyue, am not someone to be bullied."

Ren Ke was a little surprised. He saw the strength of the Han army with his own eyes. Although he didn't look frightened by the news, it still left a shadow to a certain extent.

With such a terrifying momentum, how could his own leader be so confident?

Seeing Zhuo Luo's appearance, his face was serious, not like a fake, Ren Ke couldn't figure it out, but he didn't dare to ask more.

He lowered his head, now it's all for now, even if he doesn't talk about the Han army, Zhuo Luo is going to attack the villages.The power should still be in one's own hands, the most reliable.

Seeing Zhuo Luo moaning, I'm afraid he already has an idea in his mind.
